Optical Holography - Principles, Techniques and Applications (Hardcover, 2nd Revised edition)

This is a new and greatly expanded edition of what has become one of the best-known introductions to the principles, techniques, and applications of optical holography. Where necessary, existing sections have been updated, and two new chapters, on holographic optical elements and advanced techniques in holographic interferometry, have been added. The book begins by presenting the theory of holographic imaging, the characteristics of the reconstructed image, and the various types of holograms. Practical aspects of holography are then covered (including optical systems, light sources, and recording media), as are the production of holograms for display, colour holography and computer-generated holograms. A variety of the applications of holography are then discussed in detail, such as high-resolution imaging, holographic optical elements, information storage and processing, and holographic interferometry, including vibration analysis and holographic interferometry with photorefractive crystals. This book assumes only undergraduate training in science or engineering and contains more than 1,000 selected references; anyone wishing to learn more about optical holography, as well as established researchers and engineers in this field, will find it invaluable.
